The staff is so incredibly kind. We arrived quite late and they waited up for us, and brought our luggage up to our room and made sure we were settled in. Our flight the next day was greatly delayed because of a typhoon, and not only did they hold our luggage, they also provided umbrellas so we could go out and get lunch between bad bouts of rain. They even booked a taxi for us to the airport so that we wouldn’t have to worry about finding our way there! The inn was beautiful, our room was clean and comfortable with every little detail thought of. We will definitely be coming back. :)
